Chapter 95
"Let’s eat! The food has gone cold!" Samuel said.
Yvonne felt like she was eating wax and every food she spooned into her mouth was tasteless. Her
meal was no longer pleasant due to Drake Turner affecting her good mood. 1
After the meal, she went to watch a movie and it was past ten when she reached home. Once she was
home, Lydia and Godfrey were still in the living room, each lying on the sofa while looking up rental
information o n their phones respectively.
After understanding Samuel could not possibly be a rich person and had used up all his money from
buying a second-hand house, Lydia had no patience with Samuel and had an always sullen
expression. She even snorted to him angrily each time she saw him.
"Oh yes, it is almost the end of the month! Later when we go to grandmother’s house, you shall follow
us there!" Lydia exclaimed and reminded Yvonne.
Sue Family had a tradition of having a family day every month, fixated on the 28th of each month. No
matter whether each family had any issues major or petty, they had to visit the Sue Family's mansion
and eat together with grandmother, the Grandmother Sue o f the Sue Family. This rule was fixed by
grandfather last time. This was because he felt that with the
family members staying at different places, it might cause them distant towards each other. Ever since
grandfather passed away, this family day had become a different occasion. It was now a fixed tradition
but it was no longer for the purpose of family members reconnecting with each other but for the family
members to joke with and have fun making fun of Samuel. Everybody was happy doing so.
Sue Family was not a big family but Grandfather Su had created many complicated and unnecessary
rules in the past for family members to comply with.
"Why?" Yvonne was puzzled and looked at Lydia. They used to bring along Samuel. However, her
reminder just now was obviously excluding Samuel and asking her to go with them alone.
Lydia then explained to her, "I'm afraid there will be people who will spout nonsense. Next month's
matter on the fifteenth was something that can't be known by the other Sue Family members. If this
was revealed, there will be more people who will make fun of us and laugh at us.”
Yvonne then reminded Lydia, "Mom, don't forget!
Everyone must take part in this family day, don’t you remember? If Samuel did not attend, grandmother
will surely be angry at us!"
"It is not me who prevent him from going. If he can't bear being humiliated by others, why am I being
blamed?” Lydia calmly watched her daughter. She was really unashamed to forcibly push all the
responsibilities to Samuel in front of the actual person.
"Mum, how could you be like this?” Yvonne resentfully glared at Lydia. If grandmother misunderstood,
Samuel would be cast aside by everyone in Sue Family. Besides, if grandmother had made up her
mind that Samuel had no respect towards her, she will surely make things difficult again for Samuel.
"What do you mean by this and that? I'm the one making the decision in our family. I have decided so.
A t that time, when grandmother asked you, you just stay aside and don't say anything. I will explain it
to her.” Lydia spoke with the finality of her words.
Let her explain?
Yvonne could imagine Lydia defaming Samuel by complaining that he was a son-in-law who did not
respect the elders. Grandmother will surely be displeased!
"No! Samuel must go! If not, I will not go also.” Yvonne spoke determinedly.
Lydia had mentioned this before to Godfrey. She did not want Samuel to go to the family day and would
like to intentionally teach Samuel a lesson. Godfrey responded by saying this cannot be done but she
still went ahead adamantly. Yvonne’s resolve was so firm now. If she did not go, it was hard for them to
explain t o grandmother.
Godfrey then wanted to end the tense situation. "As long as Samuel does not simply speak up, we
shall all go.
"Godfrey, this is not the occasion for you to speak! Yvonne! Now you don't even listen to your mom
anymore?" Lydia did not want to forgive Samuel easily. To her, if she did not teach Samuel a lesson
now, it will be difficult to keep him in check in the future!
"You are not speaking reasonably, why should I listen t o you? It depends on you. If he's not going, I
won’t be too." Yvonne spoke with a resolute voice.
Lydia then glanced towards Samuel and sneered." Samuel, if she didn’t go to the family day because of
you, you should know better on what is the outcome. Did you really want to implicate her?"
Samuel smiled bitterly. This matter did not have any relation to him at all. Why was he now implicating
Yvonne?
If not because of Lydia wanting to raise a ruckus on him attending the family day, this fight would not
happen at all.
"Mum, don’t worry! I won't simply speak up." Samuel reassured her.
Lydia had a pleased expression. "All right, you can go i f you really wanted to go but apologize to me
first.
Then I will consider it." 1
Samuel wanted to speak but Yvonne had dragged him back to their room before he said anything.
Samuel did not have any fault in this matter, why should he apologize?Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
